Me, braiding a traditional Bulgarian symbol - Martenitsa, by the traditional Japanese method - Kumihimo

Here is what is it Martenitsa - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martenitsa

she had braids once before - when she was 8 and going to summer camp and was too young to manage her mane of hair... a little smile wouldn't hurt would it - (i guess she gets tired of having a camera aimed in her direction all the time by me)

This is a braid my friend helped me with. It goes several laps around my head forming a hairdo that reminds me of a woven basket. Unfortunately this was the best picture of it before I had to take it out...

This is one of my early attempts. Dutch braids are harder for me to do when my hair is really thick. I think it will come out better after I straighten my hair and then braid it.

Lattice braid, also known as a diamond braid or macrame braid. This was a quick braid job and I did not realize that I had skipped a diamond in the 6th row. I've seen other lattice braids that end in a row of long tassles but I liked the way that the tapered braid looked on Saint.

Just a regular white bread recipe. The bread is best to be served as rolls when you do it like this. Thinking it would be good for Thanksgiving. Pics for a website. sites.google.com/site/familyrecipescollection/home/bread/...

Like the angle, Chotlo?

my friend french braided my hair in a fish tail esque style a while ago, and i've just got around to uploading this photo. it looked too bright before so i edited with saturation and exposure stuff....

Because I liked my hair today and needed an excuse to mess with my flash.

Heading for work after braiding my hair.

Day one of Labor Braid weekend

201*365

 

I need extra catch up photos so let me tell you braids really hurt! I was scratching and itching all day for just these three haha Anyhow I enjoyed the eperience and thought the focus and angle of this shot shows the real texture and look of my hair close up! So this is what you would see looking at me closely! ;) Although I'm still craving that macro lens......hmmmmm one day!

 

I took the big 70-200mm lens with me to Bali and couldn't resist the opportunity to take many many photos from our 6 day getaway with friends. We just needed to relax from the hustle and bustle of Sydney. I really needed a bit of a break and now struggling with choosing photos for this project as most are too personal or not staged enough for 365. Nevertherless I love so many I really just have the urge to put all my travel photos up on flickr but for now they will stay on FB hehehehe

I've been meaning to get Rune a proper wig but funds have been tight. Luckily, I found some elastics lying around and braided the old, frizzy wig I had. I think it suits her so much! ♥

Our braided kitchen rugs were made by an elderly woman in Pennsylvania. We found her when we visited a craft fair and fell in love with these colorful rugs. They are both close to a decade old and we wash them often but they are still going strong.

I got my hairdresser to put a pretty little braid in my hair ;-) It just adds the final touch to the style I think

Anyone out there know the secret to tucking in the end braid? I've tried with hairpins and bobby pins and it never stays in place.

Still taking me some time to learn the fishtail braid the french way so here is another plain one...

Thin cornrows hair style, which are tiny braids that are made all over the head and decorated with beads, a very popular style among kids in southeast asia beaches. Although this style can be time-consuming, it is meant to last. A very intricate braiding styles use seven or nine strands. Ha! I couldn’t resist and I made this spyshot.

  

Hadn't uploaded a decent french braid pic in a while so here it is...

Studying this kind of image makes me fall into a deep sleep.

I just can't keep it tight while doing a dutch braid. Some women find doing this braid easy and have a hard time mastering the french braid. I guess I'm just the opposite.

This was taking during one of my trips over in Barcelona Spain. I never got around to posting it until now. Their something about this image I just love open-air hair braiding.

Nice closeup of the amazing braid my husband did on me. Now I just wish he could learn to french braid...
